Which way do you want to take it? Lets try self interest. If you hit your neighbor he'll probably stab you in the liver when you aren't looking....but...if you help your other neighbor he may hold the would be stab-er at bay. So in this case, whats wrong is roughly equivalent to what is detrimental to yourself or whatever you encompass, and whats right is whatever is beneficial to the same. A wide range of "wrong" and "right" throughout or past and here in the present could probably be covered by this - whether or not it's accurate in and of itself, or whether or not it should be this way...............meh.
